Overal everything worked as listed. The air conditioner was sub par. If we had four of us the upstairs bedroom would not have been an option. Otherwise it was good for the two of us. Nice cabin and very private.

Thank you for staying with us! We have been getting hot weather here in the UP. I have been upgrading in the cabin and unfortunately life took a turn twice over and back to back for me and my every day work on my cabin was put on hold. I do have another window unit that can easily put in for the upstairs…that is why I keep close contact with my guests staying here. I live here in Ontonagon and my passion for the comfort of my guests is always priority to me. Take care and hope you think of us your next travels in the area🙏HEIDI

Communication with Heidi was so easy! Check in was seamless and the location of the cabin was perfect for exploring Porcupine Mountains, local waterfalls, the beautiful and pristine beaches of Lake Superior, as well as everything the Keweenaw Peninsula has to offer. The cabin is very private and is a short distance to a public beach. Heidi and Gary have thought of so many details to make our stay comfortable-from providing homemade crepes, fresh eggs, and freshly cut flowers to comfortable beds, robes, beach and cabin towels, cookware, coffee and tea bar, games, and so much more! Sipping coffee outside while being surrounded by hummingbirds is certainly a treat!

Amazing Michigan Vacation

This cozy little cabin was the perfect place for our family of 4 to stay. The location was right in between everything we wanted to visit. It had everything we needed and could want in a house. The hosts were amazing.
